The original post was about burning CDs and charging the dupication cost, we already covered the industrial scale boodtlegging for profit falls under counterfeiting.

In terms of profits to the original artist it’s exactly the same as resale though, they get zero from both.

You are very naive if you think copyright is serving the actual artists producing art.

Even for legitimate copies, a retailer doesn’t get in touch with the artist to let them know who they’ve sold a copy to.

Is the original architect involved when you sell your house? Everyone involved in that specific transaction knows what is being traded, stop acting dense.

I was thinking more about the cd producer and purchaser. If the purchaser knows they are getting bootlegs it’s just plain old copyright infringement, if not it’s counterfeiting.

Sure as long as everyone involved knows that is what is going on.

Counterfeiting is what has gone on here.

That’s the joke.

There is a real risk that will become the attitude though, no need for security researchers, the LLMs got us covered. Great if true but it’s probably not.

Their areas of expertise and research are not areas that offer insight into mechanisms of cognition, they are not a neurobiologist or a computer scientist involved in machine learning. Their high standing in related areas is being used to give credence to an argument that is no better than a gut feeling.

You also have no ideas what conflicts of interest exist here, there may be none or the professor could be heavily invested in LLM companies.

LLMs dont think and the “trains of thought” is just strapping a bunch of LLMs together to try and tidy up and correct if one of the models in the chain outputs nonsense which they are wont to do. They are useful tools, they don’t spontaneously generate output or request input. It’s a very complicated auto complete that is capable of generating plausible valid output (when considered by humans) to a given natural language input.

Click bait nonsense based on what a psychiatrist feels. It’s not even possible to make this determination because LLMs don’t think and have no agency and we don’t fully understand how humans think to compare against if they did.

Aren’t most torrents “unofficial”?

Never heard of Meatloaf? He was against covid Vax and died from it as I recall. I also know of one person who died from covid with no preexisting conditions who was in his early 50s but that was before the vaccine was available so he couldn’t have had a different outcome.

The first rule of Dunning-Kruger club is that you don’t know you are in Dunning-Kruger club.

Most peers of the US as in developed countries had large scale vaccination programs but your point has nothing to do with addressing my point that purely through corelation more people being vaccinated means more people coincidentally died or suffered some malady.

Most people who have died or have been incapacitated since covid had it happen after they were vaccinated since most people got vaccinated. Most people also die or get incapacitated after drinking some water, maybe you should also become a water skeptic?

Even if a leaky vaccine leads to a more virulent strain (it didn’t for covid as far as I know), if heard immunity is achieved that makes it hard to spread it might never make it to a vulnerable individual.

We’ve got years of data showing they are safe at this point and given the massive deployment, serious issues would have become apparent by now.

Isn’t that the whole point of things like the Darwin awards, pointing out when someone’s own flawed behaviour led to their demise when they could have easily avoided it by making better decisions?
